Error code WS-116129-0, along with the message “Content not found,” has recently affected PlayStation players attempting to install the Call of Duty Warzone Season 01 update. Some players encounter this error when accessing Warzone content or using the What’s Hot row, resulting in a black or unresponsive screen. This guide will provide detailed troubleshooting steps to help resolve this error while PlayStation and Call of Duty developers actively work on a fix.

[FIXED] PS5 Error Code WS-116129-0

1. Check for PSN and Activision Server Status

Confirm that both PlayStation Network (PSN) and Activision servers are operational, as server issues can impact game updates and content accessibility.

  1. Check PlayStation Network Service Status at PlayStation Service Status.
  2. Check Activision’s Online Services status for Call of Duty at Activision Support.
  3. If issues are reported, wait until they are resolved, as this may be the primary cause of the problem.

2. Restart Your PS5 Console

Restarting your console can resolve minor system glitches that may interfere with game access.

  1. Press the PS Button on the controller.
  2. Go to Power Options and select Restart PS5.
  3. After the console reboots, try reinstalling or accessing Warzone content.

3. Sign Out and Back Into Your PSN Account

Sometimes, account sync issues can affect content visibility. Signing out and back into your account may help.

  1. Go to Settings > Users and Accounts > Account > Sign Out.
  2. Once signed out, return to Users and Accounts and sign back in using your credentials.
  3. Check if the error persists when accessing Warzone content.

If the update files are corrupted or incomplete, reinstalling may help resolve the error.

  1. From the PS5 home screen, go to Game Library and select Call of Duty Warzone.
  2. Press the Options button on the controller and choose Delete to uninstall the game.
  3. Go back to the Library, locate Call of Duty Warzone, and reinstall it along with the latest update.

5. Update PS5 System Software

An outdated system software version may interfere with new game updates. Ensure your PS5 is up-to-date.

  1. Go to Settings > System > System Software > System Software Update and Settings.
  2. Select Update System Software and install any available updates.
  3. Restart your console and attempt to install or access the Warzone update again.

6. Rebuild Database in Safe Mode

Rebuilding the database can help optimize the system files, improving compatibility with new content.

  1. Turn off your PS5 completely.
  2. Hold the Power button until you hear a second beep, then release it.
  3. Connect your controller and select Rebuild Database from the Safe Mode options.
  4. After the rebuild completes, restart the PS5 and check the Warzone update.

Clearing your PS5 cache removes any corrupted data that may interfere with game updates.

  1. Power off the PS5 and unplug it for 30 seconds.
  2. Reconnect the power cable and power the console back on.
